The Lawrence of Arabia legend went in his sleep on Saturday night at a London hospital after having been sick for awhile.

His daughter Kate’s statement read:

"His family are very appreciative and completely overwhelmed by the outpouring of real love and affection being expressed towards him, and to us, during this unhappy time. Thank you all, from the bottom of our hearts. In due course there will be a memorial filled with song and good cheer, as he would have wished."

Just last year, Peter retired from acting, after having received the most Oscar noms without winning. They gave him an award in 2003 to make up for it though!

I really liked this actor. So he never won one measly Oscar even?! Disgrace! I guess he chose not to pay for it (like all the others do to get it). I won't say I will miss him because I didn't know the man but his movies will always be here for me when I fell like watching something worthwhile.

How is this NOT the cover story!!! Courney Stodden, Sharon Osbourne, Lamar Odom, Lindsay Lohan…these people are supposed to stand out? Next, I am gonna have to look at Beyonce's shapeless calves…I always knew Peter O'Toole was a classy, dignified and tremendous actor
